Before you start gambling, do some research first

it's best to stop giving him advice, just let it go and tell him "do whatever you want and be responsible for your actions" this way he will realize more quickly when he has lost everything and he doesn't have any hope, that way his heart will be open and he will gain a very painful experience in that way, of course he will be deterred and get better, he will think about your words

That is if he realizes that what he is doing is wrong, but most gamblers will return to gambling even though they have experienced defeat. It doesn't make them stop gambling unless the person giving them advice is someone who can really understand them and is close to them. It would indeed be painful for him if he experienced defeat because he could immediately become deterred and think about the words of people very close to him. But it may take time for him to understand what he has to do and also understand what he has been advised to do. If he felt that it was good advice, he would stop gambling.

Mistakes cannot be stopped unless we can control them well. I mean everything can still be calmed if we have an ego that can be controlled. Often we lose control when gambling and this sometimes becomes a driver that we cannot brake. The result is that we often forget and even regret when it is too late. So being more mature while it can save us.

Loosing control to your ego is something almost every gambler should always keep in check because it can actually cause a lot on them and they will think it's just a normal gambling habit until they must have lost a whole lot to gambling then they will then realize their mistake a d would want to possibly make amends.

Some persons aren't disciplined with the way they gamble and that's why they have to regret after in the long run about when they have lost a lot to their gambling habit and probably they don't have much to fall back to then they would rather throw blames around and wish they weren't involved in the gambling habit they did got into but then it's usually better if one can try to get everything under control before they had got to the point where they will regret.

It seems like your friend is facing a serious issue with gambling addiction. It would be best to encouraged him to see professional support in order to take small steps to recovery. Aside from advising him to set limits to his gambling, you can opt on finding ways to cope his stress and boredom such as playing or distracting himself by doing different thyings.

[Strongkored]

He have gotten used to this way because he started gambling all by himself and he won some money but end up even fuelling his addiction. What is next? Any tip?

We cannot give advice or tips to a gambling addict so that he can get out of his addiction, he must be treated by someone who is an expert because they have the right way to overcome addiction, sometimes even treatment for addiction can fail, especially if we only give advice or tips to addicts so they can recover.

This is what I say too, taking it to a professional is the best way even though failure is possible unless the addict finally realizes it and starts trying to reduce his gambling.

As long as we can gamble responsibly then gambling is not a problem. What will bring us problems is when we gamble beyond our means, spending money carelessly without any limits.

A gambler in recovery from gambling needs family support as well as involvement in recreational activities so that he can stay away from the intense gambling addiction. A gambler can live a busy life if he wants to, so he needs to be involved in the job and 24 hours he needs to be busy with something so that he can control himself from bad addiction like gambling. It should be remembered that an addict may feel helpless all the time, so he should always be empathetic and he should always have family support as well as friends to hang out with so that he does not break down.

The gambler who get advice from the old gambler should be accepted.Because they will advise based on the experience on the same gambling site.The gambler who take the responsibility for the loss in the gambling site are the professional gamblers.The gambler who take responsibility for each one dollar in the gambling site will make huge from the same gambling site.Because the gambler does not take risk when they take responsibility of the money in the gambling sites.The gamblers who face the loss whose heart will be broken one in the emotion.The broken heart also reason for the loss in the gambling site most likely in random betting.

Of course what you say is very true, but have you ever been with a gambling addict who spent all his money on gambling? irresponsible gambling addicts, they won't care about what we say, even if it's for their own good, it's hard to make them aware, we can only tell them, but the choice is still up to them.

This difficult in adhering to advice stems from the fact that gambling activates the brain’s reward system of an addict by releasing dopamine and this creates a euphoric feeling that reinforces the behaviour, making it difficult for individuals to resist the urge to gamble again. Gambling addiction affects impulse control, decision-making processes, and emotional regulation, making it harder for individuals to resist the urge to gamble.

In some cases, the gambler may be surrounded by friends who also engage in problematic gambling behaviours and this can normalize their addictive tendencies because the gambler will feel that there is nothing wrong with his behaviour. In addition, financial pressures resulting from gambling losses can create a vicious cycle where individuals feel compelled to continue gambling in hopes of recouping their losses. The fear of facing consequences such as bankruptcy can fuel the addictive cycle, making it difficult for individuals to break free from their compulsive gambling habits.

Precisely, even if we set examples to someone who is already addicted to gambling, they will not understand everything we say because there is only one thing that is stamped on their minds, that is to believe what they want to believe. We should not waste our time with people who are not willing to listen to our advice. We know that we have helped them in any way by giving them advice, it is up to them whether they will listen and understand everything or not.

We should not waste our time with people who are not willing to listen to our advice. We know that we have helped them in any way by giving them advice, it is up to them whether they will listen and understand everything or not.

Of course, because an addicted gambler has a strange mindset and is different from normal people in general when it comes to gambling, they have significant confidence in gambling activities, such as believing that they will really be able to win big, no matter what. the fact of defeat always hits them at the end of the session but they still believe that it is part of their struggle to produce bigger wins. All these beliefs arise due to the hope they place on winning, and this is also the reason why addiction is difficult to overcome with some suggestions even though the suggestions seem reasonable, and addiction is a disease that exists in a person's mind, simply put, addiction is very difficult to overcome if basically they still really like their gambling activities.

On the other hand, yes, I understand that we care about them, especially if they are basically one of our friends, but the fact is that it is very difficult to give them advice and usually it ends in a fight because they think that we are bothering them. So at least we have given our best, even if it is just advice and we will leave the rest to time, because only time will give them the real answer that gambling is not what they think.

The dopamine rush is simply one of many behavioral reinforcement, social, and psychological factors. The brain's reward system isnt playing tricks; its trapping people in a cycle of exhilaration and anguish. I witnessed this vicious cycle. Its a war against one's neurological connections, not just willpower. Mentioning peer influence and financial demands is touchy. Its a harsh reminder that gamblers fight an ecosystem that encourages addiction.

Breaking free requires more than willpower. Recognizing triggers, finding support, and resetting the brain's reward circuitry are necessary. A tall order, yet feasible. Empowerment and recovery begin with knowing addiction's complexity.

A gambler in recovery from gambling needs family support as well as involvement in recreational activities so that he can stay away from the intense gambling addiction. A gambler can live a busy life if he wants to, so he needs to be involved in the job and 24 hours he needs to be busy with something so that he can control himself from bad addiction like gambling.

The gambler who get gambling addiction can’t get recover from the gambling,once they get into the big loss and the heat is felt to their financial situation alone help them to understand the gambling addiction.The gamblers who get more knowledge in the gambling thought they can make money,but only the luck with the skills help to earn money.The skills alone doesn’t make him money or the luck alone doesn’t allow him to make the money.The gamblers with job able to manage loss from gambling site.

It should be remembered that an addict may feel helpless all the time, so he should always be empathetic and he should always have family support as well as friends to hang out with so that he does not break down.

The gambler after get loss of huge funds in the gambling industry will able to understand their addiction.The family should help them to understand their position of life by gambling addiction.The gambling is not the wrong one,addiction in gambling will cause huge loss.

It's good to have a source of income at first before you start gambling but I want to talk about this even more, do you know that even with your source of income you might be at one spot and not move forward?   

Gambling doesn't move a person forward it's a game of luck and whoever assume to go forward in life through gambling is living in his illusion and rethink again finding himself in that shit

No progression means you are no different from someone who have no source of income, I know someone who work so hard, I mean the hard jobs, that I can't even do, but at the end of the month when he gets paid he always waste everything on gambling, as if something told him that gambling is the way in this world for him.

He can't stop this, he can't help it, he is addicted to this way, I knew this after he start going around asking for things that he should be able to afford as a worker, he confessed that he lost money at first but the same thing kept happening for months and I find out that he is risking all his salary on gambling.

The reality is that you can't help him doing it on your own, with all you said about this guy he has gotten to an addictive stage where a professional attention should be involved. Confining him will sound absurd for a matured family man with responsibility therefore he can be giving a rehabilitating session's with a counselor and also his family should show support by having access into his finance as it will create a limit so he doesn't have to spend all money the way he's doing.

Faced with an addict in the family, quite a few people go to online forums and receive instructions to lock up the addict so that they have absolutely no chance to use their hands to gamble and as it spreads, it becomes one of the methods, but from a logical perspective, it doesn't seem like a suitable route for most people. Society today has experts and consulting sessions like you mentioned but perhaps a bad reputation is something that should not be bragged about, most people keep it a secret and advocate for family-oriented healing with what they have learned.

The gambler who play the game doesn’t affect the real life financial situation,it only affected only if they get gambling addiction.Because by the gambling addiction the gambler will use to play the game with all the money in their bank wallet leads to complete loss.

The gambling addicted person will play the gambling like the less skilled labour,they never worry about the results.They play the gambling with the motive of making money in the game,but making money in the gambling need of more skills.

The gambler will have more opportunities to get away from the gambling site,when the time was bad.The gamblers should take the break in the game after they analysis the gambling playing luck was bad to him.So they can get away from the complete loss.

But in this case we must realize that deciding to stop activities in gambling is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand because after all we must realize that stopping activities that we always do must take time and effort as well as in gambling.

Indeed, it would be great if indeed seeing from the completion that is done when something can hinder the achievement you have then it would be better if it is released so that it does not interfere with you in getting an achievement but when this relates to the habit of gambling in the end letting go of it requires more effort because after all gambling is a very difficult thing for us to stay away from when we are used to doing it because there will always be a feeling of lack when we don't do gambling in the end.

The gambling stopping should need to understand by the gamblers first,because without their own opinion it’s not possible to stop the gambling.In addition the gamblers should accept it was the process doesn’t work at instantly.When the gamblers begin to the gambling addiction,it’s not easy for the gambler to stop the gambling as like we think.He should initiate the gambling addiction reduction by the amount of money deposited to the gambling site.This only works because when the deposit money is low,the loss also low.

All have their own level of gambling but the reasons to stop gambling will all remain the same because on average it will happen if we are too addicted and lose too much which results in us not being able to control what we do in the end.
Even though we all have different experiences in gambling but in the end we must realise that the biggest reason to stop gambling is the pressure because we are too focused on gambling and forgetting everything that could be an important situation such as meeting our needs in daily needs etc.

As for the problem of stopping being done as i said earlier this will not be as easy as turning the palm of the hand especially if we are already tightly tied to gambling because this is the same as making you stop the activities that you always do and it will be very torturous so that the process and seriousness will be an important factor to support it because if we are not serious in stopping gambling then forever it will not be overcome because after all this must be done in the right way and method in order to succeed. In addition, things like this also sometimes require great support from several groups including our closest family.

Small wins can feel like tiny victories, fueling the illusion that "just one more spin" will lead to riches. But that's the trap, my friend. It's like chasing butterflies – the closer you get, the faster they flutter away, leaving you with nothing but empty pockets and a nagging sense of hope betrayed.

Before you even step into that virtual casino, understand the odds. They're stacked against you, plain and simple. It's not a level playing field, and the house always has the advantage. Think of it like playing chess with a grandmaster who's blindfolded – you might win once, maybe twice, but the long game is rigged.

Responsible behavior? Absolutely crucial. Approach gambling like a tightrope walk, not a casual stroll. Set limits, stick to them like glue, and never, ever chase losses. Remember, it's entertainment, not a get-rich-quick scheme. Treat it like a fancy dinner, not an all-you-can-eat buffet – enjoy it in moderation, or you'll end up feeling queasy (and broke).

A word is enough for the wise. You have itemized the guides to be a responsible gambler and if followed then gambling will be fun and not a death sentence as some gamblers have made it appear. Setting limits should cover both financial and time limits. Financial limit involves determining how much money you are willing and able to spend on gambling activities. Once a gambler reaches this limit, he should stop gambling for the day or session. With financial limits, a gambler is prevented from overspending and his bankroll is protected. Sticking to the limit is also crucial even if you’re on a winning streak, as chasing losses can lead to further financial difficulties.

Setting a time limit is important as a gambler needs to decide how long he wants to gamble and he can do this by setting a timer in his mind or even setting an alarm if possible to remind him when his time is up. This can help ensure that he doesn’t get carried away and spend too much time gambling, which could negatively impact other aspects of his life, such as work, relationships, or personal well-being.

It seems like your friend is facing a serious issue with gambling addiction. It would be best to encouraged him to see professional support in order to take small steps to recovery. Aside from advising him to set limits to his gambling, you can opt on finding ways to cope his stress and boredom such as playing or distracting himself by doing different thyings.

Easy to say that but you know that an addict will have a hard time doing that because most of them are totally in denial that they're having a problem or that they're addicted. It's a good recommendation to find other ways to distract yourself but if you've been addicted before, you're going to have a hard time concentrating on those other activities because you're so fixated on going back to what you're addicted to, they'll easily get bored so all this all boils down to that person having to be willing to change for the better but if they can't do it now, then the help that will be provided will almost always be short-lived no matter how helpful you've been.

Doing some research on your gambling activity don't seem to be a good idea in my opinion, not because it's bad but because what's the point? I mean besides learning how to play the games that you're interested in playing it, what more could you get out of research on gambling? Does the strategy that you've learned ever help you increase your chances on those games that's reliant on probability?

Research will not increase the chances of the gambling we do. However, research still needed for someone to keep their healthy gambling habbit. In my opinion, this research is not limited to whether it influences probability or strategy, but will at least provide us with readiness in every gambling activity. For example, to control emotions, determine limits and choose a gambling model. With research, at least we can consider whether sports gambling or card gambling that match with our character, or whether slots are better for finding fun in gambling. Without analysis, we may not find which one the best for our personal characteristics. but everyone definitely has their own considerations, if you think research is unnecessary, that's based on your side, because everyone has their own decisions, nothing wrong with that.

Yeah right, I'm being sarcastic about my last question. I don't believe that it does help with keeping a healthy gambling habit because I don't even believe that there's such thing as healthy gambling habit, that's like saying you've got a healthy smoking habit, gambling is a vice and the moment that you're casually playing, it's already not a healthy thing to do even if most people that are out there defending that it's got benefits, that's just their coping mechanism to justify their habit.

In my case I think its different since researching is I think can help my chances to win especially when I try to bet on sports betting site. Because there's lot of things need to watch for and its good to see some good updates on each opponent to see on who's more stronger than them and if there's injury report on the team since this could help us to decide on what teams are we going to bet.

But if we talk about luck based game then I would agree with you that research might not be needed since whatever strategy we are going to research for sure it will never work since luck play a lot of rule with that so maybe we can say that the result will all matter if we are lucky at the time we play. Research is somehow important and should be done by people since as you said it can contribute a lot of thing since its really better for a gambler so that they will not get confuse on some games they are trying to participate.

If they think like that, they will not have a chance to leave gambling instead will stay for more and spend more money. Yeah, that is the trap that every gamblers must realize so they don't playing gambling too long. "Just one more spin" already become a slogan for many gamblers so they forget to stop themselves from playing gambling and just losing more money. But I believe some gamblers can hold themselves and quit gambling before they lose more money.

It's why before someone playing gambling, he needs to research what he must know about gambling so he don't enter to the trap and can use gambling as an entertainment. It's not as hard as they think but what makes hard is people needs to doing that thing continously so they can master the abilities to prevent themselves become a heavy gambler.

Once they become a heavy gambler, they will not have a chance to realize what they already do unless they can see how much money they used and want to change it for a better. A gambler will be hard to win from the casino as the house will be the big winner and takes the money from the lose gamblers.
